Do you find yourself asking the question: how to franchise my business? The AFC Assessment Analysis is your most important investment in the process of setting up a franchise. The twin goals of the analysis are for AFC franchise consultants to study the business and its market and identify what modifications may be required to ensure its smooth transfer to a franchise concept.
